    In reply to 100,000-Pound Crane Smashes House in Half
    Yeah this could have turned out truly horrific. It is horrible that this persons house is damaged horribly, but I think the crane company's insurance will cover it or they will one way or the other.

    On the other hand:
    Imagine, if you will, that you get up to the pearly gates and you see St. Peter. You have to explain to him the reason why you are so early for your appointment is that some jackass landed a crane on you while you were just chillin' at your house. Poor guy is going to have to try not to fall off his podium stool from laughter 'cause I'm sure he doesn't hear that one every day.

    How could this get any worse you ask? They found out while dealing with a car accident that the wife just got into...

    I love picture 3.

    "Guys! The crane fell over!"
    "Damn, how are we gonna fix this?"
    "Another crane?"
    "Genius!"

    Although I feel bad for wishing suffering upon whoever's house this is, it would have been hilarious had the rescue crane toppled over too. #crane

    And thankfully no one was injured or killed.

    Looks like someone needs to go back to Crane Operator School though... #crane

    I feel like I've just watched the same bridges blow up over and over and over again... Until the black cat crossed my path twice and... Well, nevermind.
